Capital Transactions
Growing businesses need capital, which is especially
challenging for smaller businesses, especially in today's fast paced
markets. Owners often miss major market opportunities because they do not
have enough capital to seize them. Owners of growing businesses must also
recognize the benefits of diversifying their net worth. As their company
grows, it often becomes the single largest asset of the entire family.
Many business owners mistakenly believe that their only
option for liquidity is to sell their business to a competitor. A
recapitalization transaction, either for a controlling stake or a minority
position, is an option that can be ideal for those business owners and
managers who are committed to growing their business, but need to address
estate planning and portfolio diversification issues.
In today's marketplace, private equity funds have more than
$100 Billion in capital, waiting to be invested in solid middle market
businesses. The challenge for these businesses is gaining access that this
capital through a sound transaction strategy, a targeted approach to the market,
and an experienced negotiating team. SGCA can help.
Sales and Divestitures
Under certain circumstances, business owners may merge with a
strategic partner or exit their business altogether. SGCA can help owners
and management teams position the opportunity in the best possible light,
manage the transaction from start to finish, thus allowing management and
owners to continue to focus on the day to day operations of the business
and on the continued success of the business.
The challenge is for these owners to maximize the value of
the business while minimizing the impact of the transaction on all of the
stakeholders, including its employees, managers, customers, suppliers as
well as shareholders. We act as
an outsourced transaction execution team that works solely on behalf of our
client.
In all types of sell-side transactions, our team will run a
comprehensive process that can both maximize the value of the business and
structure the transaction for the best possible outcome.
